Der Weg 1, no. 2 (1919)1919

Not on view
Woodcut print with bold black lines and geometric fragmented forms depicting three figures in an interior, one central figure at a table with a glass, signed 'A. Wach'
Black and white woodcut print with bold contrasting forms: a robed figure hunched over a stylized boat amid wavy water, with radiating sun rays at upper left, a fish below the surface, and a diagonal rope or mast at upper right.
Woodcut print in black and white; a figure with short hair rests a hand against their cheek while seated at a table with a small potted plant; angular urban buildings fill the background, rendered with bold, expressionist cut lines.
